LOCAL PIG BREEDS AND PORK PRODUCTS IN CROATIA AND SLOVENIA – UNEXPLOITED TREASURE [PDF]
The rationale, the concept and key challenges of the H2020 project TREASURE dealing with local pig breeds is presented and discussed. The action addresses the phenotypic and genetic characterization, performance of local pig breeds in diverse production ...

A simple DNA based method for determination of pure Black Slavonian pigs
The aim of this work was to determine the MC1R genotype of Black Slavonian pigs and to find an efficient and simple PCR-RFLP method, based on differences in MC1R genotype, to distinguish between purebred Black Slavonian pigs and their crossings with ...

SLAUGHTER QUALITY OF BLACK SLAVONIAN PIG – ENDANGERED BREED AND ITS CROSS-BREDS WITH SWEDISH LANDRACE WHILE KEEPING THEM OUTDOOR [PDF]
Black Slavonian pig is an autochtonuous Croatian breed derived by crossing Mangulitza, Berkshire and Polandchina at the end of 19th century. It belongs to the group of endangered breeds. Because of its pronounced resistance, pigmented skin and ability of

The muscle quality traits (pH1 and pH24 and colour of M. longissimus dorsi), blood stress indicators (CPK – creatine phosphokinase, LDH – lactate dehidrogenase, AST – aspartat aminotransferase and glucose) and trimmed cut lean yield (proportion of selected lean meat of hams, loin, shoulders and neck) were evaluated for traditional Black Slavonian (BS ...

Abstract Large genotyping datasets, obtained from high‐density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, developed for different livestock species, can be used to describe and differentiate breeds or populations. To identify the most discriminating genetic markers among thousands of genotyped SNPs, a few statistical approaches have been proposed. In

Low input production system suitable for Black Slavonian pig breeding [PDF]
Pig production in Croatia is organized on the big farms and small family farms. During the last 10 years there has been a drastic decrease in number of pigs. One of the reasons for this decrease is high production cost. For that reason it is necessary to reorganise pig production and introduce low cost production systems.

Abstract The rapid expansion of wild pigs (Sus scrofa) throughout the United States has been fueled by unlawful introductions, with invasive populations causing extensive crop losses, damaging native ecosystems, and serving as a reservoir for disease. Multiple states have passed laws prohibiting the possession or transport of wild pigs.

Microsatellite multiplex method for potential use in Black Slavonian pig breeding [PDF]
Previous studies on Black Slavonian pig breed were focused on the main coat color MC1R locus and on development of the method for Black Slavonian cross-breeds identification, based on coat color genotype. Microsatellites have been used for population studies in pigs for last 25 years and are convenient markers for evaluating the genetic diversity of ...
